NASA has started live streaming video from the ISS so you can keep tabs on your favorite space laboratory. But the catch is that you won't see astronauts on the show.

Due to a limited bandwidth of communication channels, the live stream can only run while astronauts are asleep. And to promote their privacy, footage will only be transmitted from cameras outside the station.

But it should still be pretty neat. Those cameras will shoot views of Earth, space and even the ISS itself. Unfrortunately, at the time of this writing, all you can see is a map. [NASA via AP]
